    lissa04 got a reaction from Kathryn41 in Dual citizenship question   
    Yes but in the US they no longer consider your Canadian citizenship. That is why on your naturalization certificate it shows your FORMER country of citizenship. When you take your oath you actually renounce your citizenship or titles that you have in any other country. Canada will consider dual citizenship but the US won't!!!!

    If she is leaving you and your talking about divorce, then I would wait till you have been a permanent resident for 5 years minus the 90 days. What most people don't know is at this stage of the game you will be scrutinized to the maximum. More so now then with the green card application. If you lie and it is found out your naturalization can be stripped from you. I have heard people say that it is a much easier process when you apply based on 5 years vs. 3 years. When I sent in my N-400 I sent all the same evidence and more then when I removed my conditions. The officer was happy that I had everything in order and didn't have to verify anything like joint bills since it was already submitted. Remember you are under oath when you go for your interview and these guys/girls are trained in deception. Don't risk it. It took you a long time to get where you are, you don't want to lose it all for a stupid lie.

    PS: don't be surprised if you have immigration checking with your neighbors or knocking on your door. It happened to me, I just wasn't home when they stopped by, my neighbor Charlie told me when I got home. The hubby and I went to go get groceries, and missed them by 15 mins.

    I am so sorry. If I were you I would contact Canadian immigration and explain to them that he used you to get immigration benefits and that he is using this other woman to get immigration benefits in Canada. I am sorry but he doesn't deserve to be in the two best countries in the world. I feel bad that you have to go through this, but I honestly feel he should not gain any benefits as he was trying to commit marriage fraud. If you go to the embassy or immigration and report him, hopefully they will put a big red flag and deny him permanent residency. I would also contact US immigration as well and let them know this as well since it is a crime. If he is convicted of immigration fraud he can kiss his Canadian residency goodbye. Canada is very strict on people who have criminal records. I know deep down in your heart you still care, but he played you for a fool. You should be proud that you are a US citizen, it's just sad that so many are taken advantage of only for immigration benefits.
